This draft has been resubmitted and is currently awaiting re-review.

Comment: Ireland also has one https://movendi.ngo/news/2022/01/05/alcohol-minimum-unit-pricing-has-come-into-effect-in-ireland-with-boost/ Also, if you take more generally and included not just those with MUP/unit of pure alcohol but also MUP/unit of alcohol drinks you can add others such as Armenia for all alcoholic drinks and more on just some drinks https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7936953/ KylieTastic (talk) 12:29, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Thanks but I'm aware of them; let's start with the listed entries, so I don't have to re-submit the article for review again if something goes wrong. --94.255.152.53 (talk) 11:48, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

This is a list of countries with minimum unit price laws for alcohol. A few countries have implemented minimum unit pricing (MUP) for alcohol. These laws aim to tackle alcohol-related harms by establishing a minimum price per unit of alcohol, thereby discouraging excessive consumption and improving public health outcomes.

Country	Law	Minimum Unit Pricing	Dollar conversion
Australia	Liquor Act 2019 (Northern Territory)	1.3 AUS^[1]	0.98
Scotland	Alcohol (Minimum Pricing) (Scotland) Act 2012	65 pence^[2]	0.89
Wales	Public Health (Minimum Price for Alcohol) (Wales) Act 2018	50 pence^[3]	0.68
